2015 MARKET OUTLOOK

• A nicely positive year for global equities and a continued bull market

• The global economy should continue expanding, led by the US, UK and select Emerging Markets

• Forward looking indicators suggest further economic expansion – LEIsglobally remain high and continue to rise

• Expect revenue growth, earnings growth and slight profit margin expansion 

• Falling resource prices reflect increased supply, not a sign of a weakening global economy

• Weaker regions like the Eurozone should do better than dour expectations

• Equity valuations remain attractive to history and other asset classes 

• Investor sentiment still has room for improvement before becoming euphoric

In reviewing Fisher, PCA considered investment performance and recent organizational / personnel issues.

Investment Performance (as of 3/31/2015)

Manager Mkt Value ($000) Asset Class Quarter 1 YR 3 YR 5 YR Since

Inception* Inception

MSCI ACWI ex-US --- --- 3.6 -0.6 6.9 --- 3.8 --- ** Inception date reflects the month when portfolio received initial funding.

Since being retained as OPFRS’s active international equity manager in April 2011, Fisher has outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex-US index, over all time periods measured.

Organizational Issues

Since being installed as one of OPFRS’s active international equity managers in 2011 there has been a small amount of turnover as one portfolio manager left the investment team in 2013, while two portfolio managers were added in 2011. The analyst ranks have seen a higher amount of turnover with 21 analysts being added to the team and 6 leaving the team since the end of 2011. Fisher’s company culture involves constant rotation of employees, which helps explain the relatively high number of analysts added since 2011. There has also been no change to the Investment Policy Committee, which is responsible for directing all of the firm’s strategic investment decisions, since Fisher was retained by OPFRS. PCA does not see any material concerns with the Fisher organization at this time.

Investment Philosophy, per manager

Fisher Investment’s International Equity strategy utilizes a top-down investment process based on applying capital markets technology to the analysis of a wide range of economic, political, and

Page 43: Retirement Systems Steven Wilkinson 150 Frank H. Ogawa ...Recommendation: APPROVE June, 2015 Audit Committee meeting minutes. 2. Subject: Overview and Scope of Services report of FY

2

sentiment drivers to formulate forecasts and develop portfolio themes. The firm attempts to exploit the structure of foreign markets and capitalize on country and sector/industry cycles as they come into and out of favor. The firm also seeks to add value at the security level, but believes individual security research is most effective when used to complement higher-level portfolio themes and characteristics rather than as the sole focus of the investment process. Fisher expects approximately one-third of the strategy’s performance will be attributable to each of the country, sector, and security decisions. Fisher also adheres to a strict application of portfolio management discipline such that it remains continuously cognizant of the composition of the relevant benchmark and the relative risks engineered into portfolios against the benchmark.

Investment Process, per manager

Fisher’s International strategy focuses on three basic decisions that are ultimately made by the Investment policy Committee based on research conducted by the Capital Markets Research and Securities Research teams. The process begins by using certain economic indicators, known as “drivers” in order to determine country and sector allocations based on risk and return expectations. These indicators are continuously monitored in order to recognize shifts and determine if the market has discounted them. Next, a prospect list of individual securities is created using a quantitative screening process to minimize risk and screen out securities with insufficient liquidity or solvency. Finally, The Investment Policy Committee then further narrows the prospect list based on fundamental research performed by the Securities Research Team.

The fundamental research process includes an outlier analysis where buy candidates are examined to ensure their revenue streams and lines of business are closely linked to the strategy’s top-down themes. Companies are then subject to a "strategic attribute" review where a company’s comparative advantages are identified. Examples of "strategic attributes" include niche market, consolidator, regional advantage, high market share, etc. Next, an attribute execution analysis is conducted to understand how the company’s management is exploiting their advantage. Stocks are subjected to a relative valuation analysis to understand the stock's current price relative to the market, its peers, and its history. Finally, the firm examines the risks, if any, to the company’s operations. Fisher looks for “red flags" like customer concentration, environmental concerns, poor labor relations, etc. Based on the above analyses the Investment Policy Committee selects stocks for the portfolio.

Stocks are sold based on three disciplines: strategic shifts in country or sector allocations that require the sale of securities, changes in the stocks fundamentals that cause them to shift from the strategic attributes that originally warranted their purchase, and partial sales related strictly to portfolio management risk control.

Takeaways

• U.S. growth oriented assets; equity, private equity, and private real estate (on a cap rate basis), are all registering top decile valuation levels relative to their histories.

• Due to recent events in China and Greece, equity volatility (VIX) spiked in late-June / early-July, but still remains below the long-term average level of roughly 20.

• U S credit spreads widened during June and early-July U.S. credit spreads widened during June and early July.

• Even prior to early-July price declines, international equity valuations were below their historical average valuation levels.

• Interest rate risk, as measured by the duration of the U.S. 10-year Interest rate risk, as measured by the duration of the U.S. 10 year Treasury Note, remains near historic highs.

• Commodity prices and breakeven inflation levels indicate that inflation is under control.

• The PCA Market Sentiment Indicator remained neutral. (page 4)

METRIC DESCRIPTION, RATIONALE FOR SELECTION AND CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

US Equity Markets:Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the S&P 500 Index

To represent the price of US equity markets we have chosen the S&P 500 index This index has theTo represent the price of US equity markets, we have chosen the S&P 500 index. This index has thelongest published history of price, is well known, and also has reliable, long-term, published quarterlyearnings. The price=P of the P/E ratio is the current price of the market index (the average daily price ofthe most recent full month for the S&P 500 index). Equity markets are very volatile. Prices fluctuatesignificantly during normal times and extremely during periods of market stress or euphoria. Therefore,developing a measure of earnings power (E) which is stable is vitally important, if the measure is toprovide insight. While equity prices can and do double, or get cut in half, real earnings power does notchange nearly as much. Therefore, we have selected a well known measure of real, stable earningspower developed by Yale Professor Robert Shiller known as the Shiller E-10. The calculation of E-10 issimply the average real annual earnings over the past 10 years. Over 10 years, the earnings shenanigansand boom and bust levels of earnings tend to even out (and often times get restated) Therefore thisand boom and bust levels of earnings tend to even out (and often times get restated). Therefore, thisearnings statistic gives a reasonably stable, slow-to-change estimate of average real earnings power forthe index. Professor Shiller’s data and calculation of the E-10 are available on his website athttp://www.econ.yale.edu/~shiller/data.htm. We have used his data as the base for our calculations.Details of the theoretical justification behind the measure can be found in his book Irrational Exuberance[Princeton University Press 2000, Broadway Books 2001, 2nd ed., 2005].

Developed Equity Markets Excluding the US:Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the MSCI EAFE Index

To represent the price of non-US developed equity markets, we have chosen the MSCI EAFE index. Thisindex has the longest published history of price for non-US developed equities. The price=P of the P/Eratio is the current price of the market index (the average daily price of the most recent full month for theMSCI EAFE index). The price level of this index is available starting in December 1969. Again, for thereasons described above, we elected to use the Shiller E-10 as our measure of earnings (E). Since12/1972, a monthly price earnings ratio is available from MSCI. Using this quoted ratio, we have backedout the implied trailing-twelve month earnings of the EAFE index for each month from 12/1972 to thepresent. These annualized earnings are then inflation adjusted using CPI-U to represent real earnings inUS dollar terms for each time period. The Shiller E-10 for the EAFE index (10 year average real earnings) iscalculated in the same manner as detailed above.

However, we do not believe that the pricing and earnings history of the EAFE markets are long enough tobe a reliable representation of pricing history for developed market equities outside of the US. Therefore,in constructing the Long-Term Average Historical P/E for developed ex-US equities for comparisonpurposes, we have elected to use the US equity market as a developed market proxy, from 1881 to 1982.This lowers the Long-Term Average Historical P/E considerably. We believe this methodology provides amore realistic historical comparison for a market with a relatively short history.

US Private Equity Markets:Metrics: S&P LCD Average EBITDA Multiples Paid in LBOs and US Quarterly Deal Volume

The Average Purchase Price to EBITDA multiples paid in LBOs is published quarterly by S&P in their LCD study.This is the total price paid (both equity and debt) over the trailing-twelve month EBITDA (earnings beforeinterest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as calculated by S&P LCD. This is the relevant, high-levelpricing metric that private equity managers use in assessing deals. Data is published monthly.US quarterly deal volume for private equity is the total deal volume in $ billions (both equity and debt)reported in the quarter by Thomson Reuters Buyouts. This metric gives a measure of the level of activity inthe market. Data is published quarterly.

U.S Private Real Estate Markets:Metrics: US Cap Rates, Cap Rate Spreads, and Transactions as a % of Market Value

Real estate cap rates are a measure of the price paid in the market to acquire properties versus theirannualized income generation before financing costs (NOI=net operating income). The data, published byNCREIF, describes completed and leased properties (core) on an unleveraged basis. We chose to usecurrent value cap rates. These are capitalization rates from properties that were revalued during thequarter. This data relies on estimates of value and therefore tends to be lagging (estimated prices areslower to rise and slower to fall than transaction prices). The data is published quarterly.Spreads between the cap rate (described above) and the 10-year nominal Treasury yield, indicate a

f th t f ti t f th t f fi imeasure of the cost of properties versus a current measure of the cost of financing.Transactions as a % of Market Value Trailing-Four Quarters is a measure of property turnover activity in theNCREIF Universe. This quarterly metric is a measure of activity in the market.

Credit Markets US Fixed Income:Metric: Spreads

The absolute level of spreads over treasuries and spread trends (widening / narrowing) are good indicatorsof credit risk in the fixed income markets. Spreads incorporate estimates of future default, but can also be

i i i i i fi i ( idriven by technical dislocations in the fixed income markets. Abnormally narrow spreads (relative tohistorical levels) indicate higher levels of valuation risk, wide spreads indicate lower levels of valuation riskand / or elevated default fears. Investment grade bond spreads are represented by the Barclays CapitalUS Corporate Investment Grade Index Intermediate Component. The high yield corporate bond spreadsare represented by the Barclays Capital US Corporate High Yield Index.

METRIC DESCRIPTION, RATIONALE FOR SELECTION AND CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

Measure of Equity Market Fear / UncertaintyMetric: VIX – Measure of implied option volatility for U.S. equity markets

The VIX is a key measure of near term volatility conveyed by implied volatility of S&P 500 index optionThe VIX is a key measure of near-term volatility conveyed by implied volatility of S&P 500 index optionprices. VIX increases with uncertainty and fear. Stocks and the VIX are negatively correlated. Volatilitytends to spike when equity markets fall.

Measure of Monetary PolicyMetric: Yield Curve Slope

We calculate the yield curve slope as the 10 year treasury yield minus the 1 year treasury yield. When theyield curve slope is zero or negative, this is a signal to pay attention. A negative yield curve slope signalslower rates in the future caused by a contraction in economic activity Recessions are typicallylower rates in the future, caused by a contraction in economic activity. Recessions are typicallypreceded by an inverted (negatively sloped) yield curve. A very steep yield curve (2 or greater)indicates a large difference between shorter-term interest rates (the 1 year rate) and longer-term rates(the 10 year rate). This can signal expansion in economic activity in the future, or merely higher futureinterest rates.

Measures of US Inflation ExpectationsMetrics: Breakeven Inflation and Inflation Adjusted Commodity Prices

Inflation is a very important indicator impacting all assets and financial instruments Breakeven inflation isInflation is a very important indicator impacting all assets and financial instruments. Breakeven inflation iscalculated as the 10 year nominal treasury yield minus the 10 year real yield on US TIPS (treasury inflationprotected securities). Abnormally low long-term inflation expectations are indicative of deflationary fears.A rapid rise in breakeven inflation indicates an acceleration in inflationary expectations as marketparticipants sell nominal treasuries and buy TIPs. If breakeven inflation continues to rise quarter overquarter, this is a signal of inflationary worries rising, which may cause Fed action and / or dollar decline.Commodity price movement (above the rate of inflation) is an indication of anticipated inflation causedby real global economic activity putting pressure on resource prices. We calculate this metric byadjusted in the Dow Jones UBS Commodity Index (formerly Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index) by US CPI-U.While rising commodity prices will not necessarily translate to higher US inflation, higher US inflation will likelyshow up in higher commodity prices particularly if world economic activity is robustshow up in higher commodity prices, particularly if world economic activity is robust.These two measures of anticipated inflation can, and often are, conflicting.

Measures of US Treasury Bond Interest Rate RiskMetrics: 10-Year Treasury Forward-Looking Real Yield and 10-Year Treasury Duration

The expected annualized real yield of the 10 year U.S. Treasury Bond is a measure of valuation risk for U.S.Treasuries. A low real yield means investors will accept a low rate of expected return for the certainly ofreceiving their nominal cash flows. PCA estimates the expected annualized real yield by subtracting anestimate of expected 10 year inflation (produced by the Survey of Professional Forecasters as collectedestimate of expected 10 year inflation (produced by the Survey of Professional Forecasters as collectedby the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia), from the 10 year Treasury constant maturity interest rate.Duration for the 10-Year Treasury Bond is calculated based on the current yield and a price of 100. This is ameasure of expected percentage movements in the price of the bond based on small movements inpercentage yield. We make no attempt to account for convexity.

PCA has created the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) tocomplement our valuation-focused PCA Investment Market RiskMetrics. This measure of sentiment is meant to capture significantand persistent shifts in long-lived market trends of economic growthrisk, either towards a risk-seeking trend or a risk-aversion trend.

PCA Market Sentiment IndicatorPCA has created a market sentiment indicator for monthly publication (the PMSI – see below) tocomplement PCA’s Investment Market Risk Metrics.

PCA’s Investment Market Risk Metrics, which rely significantly on standard market measures ofrelative valuation, often provide valid early signals of increasing long-term risk levels in the globalinvestment markets. However, as is the case with numerous valuation measures, the Risk Metricsmay convey such risk concerns long before a market corrections take place. The PMSI helps to

i i i i i iaddress this early-warning bias by measuring whether the markets are beginning to acknowledgekey Risk Metrics trends, and / or indicating non-valuation based concerns. Once the PMSIindicates that the market sentiment has shifted, it is our belief that investors should considersignificant action, particularly if confirmed by the Risk Metrics. Importantly, PCA believes the RiskMetrics and PMSI should always be used in conjunction with one another and never in isolation.The questions and answers below highlight and discuss the basic underpinnings of the PCA PMSI:

What is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI)?The PMSI is a measure meant to gauge the market’s sentiment regarding economic growth riskThe PMSI is a measure meant to gauge the market s sentiment regarding economic growth risk.Growth risk cuts across most financial assets, and is the largest risk exposure that most portfoliosbear. The PMSI takes into account the momentum (trend over time, positive or negative) of theeconomic growth risk exposure of publicly traded stocks and bonds, as a signal of the futuredirection of growth risk returns; either positive (risk seeking market sentiment), or negative (riskaverse market sentiment).

How do I read the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) graph?Simply put, the PMSI is a color coded indicator that signals the market’s sentiment regardingeconomic growth risk It is read left to right chronologically A green indicator on the PMSIeconomic growth risk. It is read left to right chronologically. A green indicator on the PMSIindicates that the market’s sentiment towards growth risk is positive. A gray indicator indicates thatthe market’s sentiment towards growth risk is neutral or inconclusive. A red indicator indicates thatthe market’s sentiment towards growth risk is negative. The black line on the graph is the level ofthe PMSI. The degree of the signal above or below the neutral reading is an indication the signal’scurrent strength.

Momentum as we are defining it is the use of the past behavior of a series as a predictor of itsfuture behavior.

PCA Market Sentiment Indicator

How is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) Constructed?

The PMSI is constructed from two sub-elements representing investor sentiment in stocks andbonds:

1. Stock return momentum: Return momentum for the S&P 500 Equity Index (trailing 12-months)2. Bond yield spread momentum: Momentum of bond yield spreads (excess of the measured. o d y e d sp ead o e u : o e u o bo d y e d sp eads (e cess o e easu ed

bond yield over the identical duration U.S. Treasury bond yield) for corporate bonds (trailing12-months) for both investment grade bonds (75% weight) and high yield bonds (25% weight).The scale of this measure is adjusted to match that of the stock return momentum measure.

The black line reading on the graph is calculated as the average of the stock return momentummeasure and the bonds spread momentum measure. The color reading on the graph isdetermined as follows:

1 If b th t k t t d b d d t iti GREEN ( iti )1. If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are positive = GREEN (positive)2. If one of the momentum indicators is positive, and the other negative = GRAY (inconclusive)3. If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are negative = RED (negative)

What does the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) mean? Why might it be useful?

There is strong evidence that time series momentum is significant and persistent. In particular,across an extensive array of asset classes, the sign of the trailing 12-month return (positive or

ti ) i i di ti f f t t ( iti ti ) th t 12 th i d Thnegative) is indicative of future returns (positive or negative) over the next 12 month period. ThePMSI is constructed to measure this momentum in stocks and corporate bond spreads. A readingof green or red is agreement of both the equity and bond measures, indicating that it is likely thatthis trend (positive or negative) will continue over the next 12 months. When the measuresdisagree, the indicator turns gray. A gray reading does not necessarily mean a new trend isoccurring, as the indicator may move back to green, or into the red from there. The level of thereading (black line) and the number of months at the red or green reading, gives the useradditional information on which to form an opinion, and potentially take action.

I Momentum as we are defining it is the use of the past behavior of a series as a predictor of its future behavior.

(PCA) CC: David Sancewich – PCA Sean Copus – PCA Teir Jenkins – OPFRS Katano Kasaine - PCA RE: OPFRS Asset allocation Revision – Covered Calls Recommendation PCA recommends that PFRS change its existing asset allocation by moving 5% of the target allocation from U.S. equity to the covered call strategy. If this recommendation is approved, PCA further recommends moving the assets over the next two-three months. PCA would work with Staff to manage the transition as part of the regular portfolio rebalancing. Discussion At the June 24th OPFRS board meeting, PCA presented the board with an updated expected 2015 risk and return. As a result of this analysis PCA, presented a slight change to the current allocation of OPFRS that includes moving 5% of the current U.S. Equity portfolio into covered calls.

BACKGROUND

AGENDA REPORT

DATE: July 20, 2015

On September 24, 2014, the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System Board ("PFRS Board"), by unanimous motion, approved and adopted comprehensive updated and revised Rules and Regulations. This was the culmination of a three-year effort reaching back to July 2011. In July 2011, the PFRS Board directed its Outside Legal Counsel to make recommendations on updating and developing the Rules and Regulations of the PFRS Board. Outside Counsel conducted public discussion sessions and worked with staff and the PFRS Audit Committee over the following year to update the Rules and Regulations, presenting progress reports to the PFRS Board.

PFRS Legal Counsel I City Attorney Tracy Chriss later assumed the work on this project and made a progress report to the board at the November 14, 2012 Board meeting. Attorney Pelayo Llamas assumed the role of PFRS Legal Counsel I City Attorney in April 24, 2013 and continued work on the revision of the Rules and Regulations.

Beginning at the February 26, 2014 Board meeting, Attorney Llamas and the Audit Committee worked to complete the update of the PFRS Board Rules and Regulations. After a number of additional public meetings and consideration of extensive written and oral comments and suggestions made by the Retired Oakland Police Officers' Association, the PFRS Board unanimously passed a motion adopting the updated PFRS Board Rules and Regulations at the September 24, 2014 Board meeting. Member Oznowicz moved the item, seconded by Member Cooper, and the vote was 7 Aye/ 0 ~fay.
